Beloved Doughboy dies

Pop N. Fresh (1966-1997)

Veteran Pillsbury spokesman Pop N. Fresh died Monday of yeast infection. He was 31. Fresh was buried Thursday in on of the biggest funerals in years.

Dozens of celebrities attended, including Betty Crocker, Mrs. Butterworth, the Keebler elves and Hungry Jack. The graveside was piled high with flours;

Longtime friend Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy, describing Fresh as a man who "'never' knew he was kneaded." Fresh rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with turnovers. He wasn't considered a smart cookie and wasted much of his dough on half-baked schemes. Still, even as a crusty old man, he was a roll model to millions.

Fresh is survived by his second wife. They had two children -- and one in the oven.
